Another month, another post

Well it's been a few weeks so I suppose some things have happened that may or may not be blogworthy.

The best news of course is that Rev. George Vanpopta from Ancaster has accepted the call to our church, so our vacancy - which has just barely started - is nearly over. Bonus: he was minister at our Ottawa church already once before.

Carrie's been kind of wanting a dog for a while, so recently we did a trial run. We dogsat for some friends for two weeks. And by we I mean I. The dog's only fault was that she craved attention. Oh, and that one time I found some 'nuggets' in the corner of the living room... but that was probably our fault. She never begged for food. In fact, she rarely ate, sometimes going an entire day without eating. A very well-behaved dog though; she hardly made a sound, never licked people, sat quietly through baths... basically she raised the bar so high that we know we'll never find as well-behaved a dog. So no dogs for us.

Contrary to popular belief, it's a dachshund, not a rat.

A couple of weekends ago, we had some friends over from Toronto who were here for a wedding. Yay for a spare bedroom and oodles of space! We hung out with them on Saturday and even did a touristy walk downtown. We'll have to have company more often so that we get to see more sights.


Things aren't entirely green yet; most trees aren't exactly foliage-laden yet. Here's a colour-accented pic from the balcony.


This post is taking too long, so that's it for today.
